Cause of sampling error

Chance in who is sampled

Effect of small samples

Messier, less representative histograms

4
New cards

Simulation

Generating fake data from a model

5
New cards

Why simulate data?

See what chance alone produces

6
New cards

Simulated data vs its own model

Still do not match perfectly

7
New cards

nsim

Number of simulated values

New cards

Two reasons data differ from model

Model imperfect and sampling error
